Pull timer fix from Thomas Gleixner:
 "A single timer fix:

   - Prevent a memory ordering issue in the timer expiry code which
     makes it possible to observe falsely that the callback has been
     executed already while that's not the case, which violates the
     guarantee of del_timer_sync()"
